I was also a scout pilot with the 2nd/17th Cavalry. Both of us arrived the same month so I knew his quite well and we flew quite a few missions together as two scouts along with two gunships and one chase ship. These were known as 'Cav Teams'. Cav team missions were recon missions deep into enemy territory. The chase ship was there to run the mission and pick up anybody shot down. Jim was a very affable character and we all enjoyed his presence. We nicknamed him "General Burgoyne"!

My Stepfather was so loved....
I was 11 yrs. old when we lost Jim so I never got to tell him how special he was to me. The impact that he had on my character was huge. He was and is a tremendous example...makes me a sad to know that his work on earth was done so early. He has been truly missed by me and our family!!!
